Hi,
I've been on Cymbalta for just over three weeks.
The first week at 30mg I felt weak and the second week I felt
better than I have felt in years. It was remarkable.
The third week I started the 60mg pill as instructed. I am on the
9th day of the 60mg. The weakness, plus a shakiness feeling have returned but is not exclusively below the neck so to say:
My head and organization performance are a bit frazzled and shaky. The details here perhaps are not important. I just don't know whether this will lift-off the way it did with the 30mg on the second week (and I realize that whatever i experienced the 2nd week was still very EARLY), or if I am
"over dosing?" The weakness is perhaps increasing, or becoming the norm, it is unpleasant.
The pharmacist and my doc tell me it's my choice whether to
continue to see with the 60mg or go back to the 30mg. I understand that i can always increase to 60 later, should i revert to 30's now.
But I dont want to go through this difficult stage again. However no one seems to know if the 60's are just wrong for me, or if this is an adjustment period.
What do you think? Thank you so much.
